1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Introduction: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most common cancer and second leading cause of cancer-related death in the United States. The implementation of CRC screening has decreased CRC incidence in adults older than 65 years. However, among young adults who experience more aggressive disease progression, CRC incidence has been increasing for decades. Immunotherapy represents a collection of innovative and promising approaches with greater efficacy and safety. In this review, we discuss modalities and selected targets of immunotherapies for CRCs that are guided by precision medicine. Areas covered: The following review focuses on immunological approaches for CRCs, including therapeutic monoclonal antibodies, immune checkpoint blockade, cancer vaccines, and adoptive cell therapies. Expert opinion: Metastatic and refractory CRCs are significant causes of cancer-related mortality and remain difficult to treat with current standard therapies. Following multiple FDA approvals for hematologic malignancies, research into solid tumor immunotherapies has substantially increased. Several chimeric antigen receptor (CAR)-expressing T cell therapies are showing promise in CRC. Moreover, immune checkpoint blocking antibodies are transforming care for a subset of CRC patients. With advances in our understanding of oncogenic mechanisms and development of novel treatment approaches, personalized immunotherapies are poised to dramatically change the landscape of CRC treatment.
